acwilliams Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 At the moment I still subscribe to the TV, phone and broadband package that Virgin have. It is on Sunday that I will be switching over. I will be keeping my phone and broadband services with Virgin though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trinitytalk Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 sky for me, has everything i could possibly want, the choice in channels is ridiculous as is the price of the broadband. plus sky+ is fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djdabush Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I stay away from S*y out of principle. I will not be giving my money to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahamaad Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Sky only because of Lost and occasionally 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant(aka_eddy) Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Virgin out of principle alone although i have had sky before. SKy have easily the best product at the moment, i'll be seeing what Virgin can offer us to try and compete otherwise i'll have little choice but to switch. Telewest werent as good but losing sky one and ssn has been a big blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart_75 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Im with Sky only because I dont live in a cabled area. I dont like Murdoch or his plan for world domination, but dont really have much of a choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted March 26, 2007 Moderator Share Posted March 26, 2007 Sky make me miss games I've paid to see. Murdoch is a twunt Sky's coverage is good Virgin play the onnocent underdog despite being no such thing Branson is a twunt Never see Virgin Telly His trains are pretty good Neither.

stuart_75 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 If it wasnt for Sky+ then I would consider Freeview. Until then, Murdoch has me by the balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuart_75 Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Ive always thought Branson was a ok chap. Always came across as a down to earth, humble kinda guy. Rupert on the other hand........................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IainG Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 £30 for Phone, Unlimited Internet and TV sounds good to me, that's with Virgin and what I'll go with in my new house. Sky's "3 for £24" offer or whatever it is doesn't include BT's line rental... I'd have a harder decision to make if I could actually get Sky BB in Aldridge though...

bully Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Sky. I'm in the process of switching phone and broadband to Sky from Virgin. I've had sky tv for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trinity-Tom Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Sky. Despite the anti competitive behaviour of them they do provide value for money and the service is currently miles better than anything else. I would imagine that Virgin and Setanta will merge in a couple of years to try to combat sky, which will be a good thing in the long run. In fact, someone told me that Setanta and Virgin are already in discussions to launch a sports news channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilS Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Im with Sky only because I dont live in a cabled area. I dont like Murdoch or his plan for world domination, but dont really have much of a choice. I was discussing this with my Dad just the other day. My Dad reckons you can get Virgin Television down your phone line now, where you needed cable for NTL, is this correct or just the ramblings of a confused man?

Demitri_C Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 IVE HEARD SKY BB IS REALLY REALLY SHIT. would go virgin if they could get the channels back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limpid Posted March 27, 2007 Administrator Share Posted March 27, 2007 I'd love to be able to consider an alternative to Sky, but Virgin can't be bothered to cable my town. However, I'd rather pay more and get the programmes that the money pays for. Watching Virgin whine because they don't want to pay is just funny. I also love Sky+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HongKongVillan Posted March 27, 2007 VT Supporter Share Posted March 27, 2007 Sky for me without a doubt! I was so pi£$ed off with Telewest (now with Virgin) a few months ago when they threaten me with legal actions saying that I have not pay my previous bills, but in fact I did as it goes out on my direct debit. Got pi£$ed off and cut my contract 2 months ago with Telewest (or Virgin) and changed to Sky, which is cheaper in price and faster in terms of internet and more channels. And yesterday I received another letter from Virgin saying that I will be fined for a penalty charge because I have not pay for the bill this month!? Muppets!!!
